Emperor And His New Clothes(A Twisted Tale) Poem by Zehra Bukhari

Series: Kids Fun Poems

THERE WAS A SMALL KINGDOM WITH NO SCHOOL
INSTEAD RULED BY AN EMPEROR WHO WAS A TOTAL FOOL
NO ONE WAS BRAINY AS THEY DIDN'T READ BOOKS
BUT THE EMPEROR ALL CARED ABOUT WAS CLOTH AND LOOKS
ONCE CAME TWO MEN WHO TRIED TO FOOL THE KING
SAYING THEY COULD MAKE A MYSTIC OUTFIT IN A CLING
KING MADE A DEAL PAYING A LOT OF GOLD
WAITING FOR HIS ROYAL OUTFIT AS HE WAS TOLD
BUT WHEN THE EMPRESS CAME TO KNOW SHE DID NOT AGREE
VERY ANGRY BUT COULD BE CALMED BY BLACK TEA
SHE DEMANDED CLOTHES TO MATCH WITH HER RUBY CROWN
ALL SHE WANTED WAS A PERFECT RED SILK GOWN
THE KING ARGUED AND SMOTE HE WANTED HIS BEFORE
EMPRESS SAID 'NO' AND STOMPED AT THE FLOOR
BUT THEN CAME A CHILD WHO STEPPED ON KING'S CAPE
AND YELLED HARD'STOP FIGHTING THE MEN ARE ABOUT TO ESCAPE'
THE KING WAS FURIOUS AND FULL OF RAGE
HE SHOUTED 'CLOSE THE GATES AND DUMP THEM IN THE CAGE'
NOW IT WAS TIME TO FACE THE WRATH OF THE QUEEN
SHE WAS IN THE MODE OF BEING MISS MEAN
THE EMPEROR SAID'I WAS ABOUT TO BE FOOLED BY TRAITORS'
QUEEN SPOKE'YOU SHOULD HAVE KNOWN THEY WERE NO FASHION DECORATORS'
THEY BOTH WERE SAD AS THE COULD NOT GET CLOTHES THAT WERE FINE
SO THEY HAPPILY WENT TO H&M AFTER QUARTER PAST NINE
